GiVE NOLA DAY

OCD Louisiana

About this Organization

Were you aware that over 75% of Louisianans lack access to appropriate mental health care? This means our children, adolescents and adults encounter numerous barriers to effective treatment. Moreover, access to specialized mental health care is exceedingly scarce. Our top priority is to facilitate easier access to treatment for OCD and related disorders in Louisiana. In partnership with Rise Center for OCD and Anxiety, we developed Courageous Campers, a low-cost one-week psychotherapeutic summer camp for children with OCD and anxiety. Not only have we been able to directly provide access to specialized treatment to local kids, we have also provided a great learning experience to local therapists-in-training so that they can provide this kind of treatment in the future. We host a free consultation group for Louisiana clinicians to gain expertise on working with individuals with OCD and related concerns. Lastly, we host the annual New Orleans OCD Walk each fall, which is a great opportunity to support each other and spread awareness to the greater community.
